Being a host family of an international exchange student can enrich your life, and is a way to bring diversity to your family. American Field Service is seeking families to host international exchange students for the 2009-2010 academic year.
As a host family, you open your home and welcome students by providing them with a bed, meals, guidance, and support. The students desire to participate as active members of their host families, schools, and communities. Students will bring spending money and have medical insurance. Host families also receive support of regional AFS staff and volunteers.
If you would like additional information about hosting an AFS exchange student, please call 1.800.AFS.INFO or log onto www.afs.org/usa. You can also talk to an AFS exchange student about their country and their experience living in America.
This is a way to introduce a better understanding of the world to your children and family. You can also make a difference in the life of an AFS student.
